Comment from sajou no hana
I'm truly delighted to be performing the OP theme for the grand adventure story Koko Ore! I was deeply moved by Luck's brave spirit in facing every obstacle head-on, and I poured my wishes into the lyrics — that even through doubt and sorrow, one can hold on to their beliefs and race toward a brilliant light. It's a powerful song that won't be overshadowed by the strength of Koko Ore's title, so please look forward to it!
Ending Theme: 名称非公開 — "Arikitari na Nichijou to Kouun na Hibi e"

Comment from 名称非公開
We are honored to perform the ending theme for I Became a Legend after My 10 Year-Long Last Stand. While nervous about our first anime tie-up, we are overflowing with pride and joy.

Introduction
S-rank mage Luck, together with hero Eric and warrior Golan, fought fiercely in the space between dimensions to defeat the Demon King. To prevent his allies from being wiped out, Luck resolved to face the enemy alone and cried out:
"Leave this to me and go ahead!"
After an unimaginably lonely battle, Luck finally defeated even the Demon King. But when he returned to his world, 10 years had passed — and Luck had become a legendary hero celebrated for sacrificing himself to save the world.
Having grown younger in appearance due to the battle's effects, Luck conceals his identity and lives as an F-rank adventurer named Rock alongside former allies and new companions.
